Insert dipstick 0 fully in the oil filler pipe, then take it out again. 3. The oil level should be between the H and L marks on dipstick 0. If the oil level is below the L mark, add engine oil through oil filler 0. For details of the oil to use, see “20. USE OF FUEL, COOL- ANT AND LUBRICANTS ACCORDING TO AMBIENT TEM- PERATURE”.

If the oil level is correct, tighten the oil filler cap securely. 4. 5.
